Commercial Driver's License Standards: Landair Transport LLC d/b/a Covenant Logistics Application for Exemption

Notice of final disposition; grant of application for exemption.

FMCSA announces its final decision to renew the exemption granted to Landair Transport LLC d/b/a Covenant Logistics (Covenant Logistics) from the requirement that a commercial driver's license (CDL) holder with the proper class and endorsements be seated in the front seat of the commercial motor vehicle (CMV) at all times while the commercial learner's permit (CLP) holder is engaged in behind-the-wheel training on public roads or highways, but only after the CLP holder has passed the CDL skills test. FMCSA has analyzed the exemption application and public comments and determined that the exemption, subject to the terms and conditions set forth below, is likely to achieve a level of safety that is equivalent to, or greater than, the level that would be achieved absent such exemption.
